JLS, 30 Seconds to Mars and Kings of Leon Become the Latest Victims of NME Snobbery
At TMM we get a fair bit of stick for liking popular bands…but finally the sneering at anything that isn’t chosen by a limited class as being cool has gone too far. What brought us to this? Well JLS, 30 Seconds to Mars, Kings of Leon, Tokio Hotel and Jonas Brothers have all been nominated...
Adele Proves She Isn’t Depressing After All
Poor Adele has had to deal with some rubbish perceptions about her. Firstly she as labelled as swimming in Amy Winehouse’s slip stream – the same sort of thing that was thrown at Duffy. Having put it beyond any doubt that she’s a cheap carbon copy she’s now getting some different feedback. The singer commented...
Katy Perry Comments on Product Placement Are Spot On
The product placement row has been going on for quite a while, but it seems to have gone up a notch recently with the advent of Lady Gaga et al (which we commented on here and this piece gives an excellent summing up). We were happy then to see Katy Perry wade in with some...
We Never Realised Dannii Minogue had Been in Playboy!
So earlier today we ran a piece on Eminem getting in an adult star for his new video – we never realised that it could be a two way street between music and porn though! We were surprised to hear Dannii Minogue had been in Playboy. Here’s the proof: Now we love Dannii hereand it...

Ding Ding! Lil Kim has left nobody in doubt that she hates Nicki Minaj in her latest video Black Friday. For those of you that haven’t seen the offending video, here it is: So where does this hatred come from? Well the video clearly seems to indicate Lil Kim thinks Nicki is trying to copy her style.

The Brits 2011: Some Post Hype Thoughts
Remember the time that bloke form Pulp dropped trou and mooned Michael Jackson? Remember Liam Gallagher’s acceptance speech at the Brits in 2010? I refreshed my memory of said event by reading an article from The Sun about the incident. Part of the article said:- The award was presented by “a shocked Noddy Holder.” The...
Lady Gaga on 60 Minutes 2011
Lady Gaga had been shying away from interviews in the late part of last year, but now it seems as though she’s got over it and it’s nice to see her more striped back than on stage and get to find out what she’s thinking behind the costumes, massive eggs and pantomine. This one seemed...
Indie Bands Charting
As I usually do on a Sunday afternoon, i spent a short while glancing over the latest singles and UK album charts, and to my surprise; who else is in there, other than the proud indie boppers Two Door Cinema Club! I looked further into this, and found not only James Blake (the latest “new...

Cher Lloyd and Katie Waissel Both Getting Unfair Treatment
Katie Waissel ended up being the pantomine villain of X Factor for alot of people this year, right form the moment Gamu was denied a place in the finals.
